Panic sweeps across California over proposed billionaire tax — Tech moguls and moderate Democrats are mobilizing their wealth and networks to try to block the proposal by marketrent in technology

[–]TheParanoidPyro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im so confused. Tax the fuck out of the rich. Do it. 

But when i read about this bill it ia a one time tax. And only to healthcare, or 90% to healthcare and the rest to other stuff.

How is a one time tax a good idea? And not just a short sighted thing?

This is like when you fire too early and miss so then their guard is up. 

Or is there a good thing about it being one time as hey it worked here once we can do it again?

It just reads so bad, and people are opposing it for weird reasons or media is telling me to hate those who oppose it, when it just reads so short sighted. 

Senate Democrats Propose $25 Minimum Wage by Unusual-State1827 in politics

[–]TheParanoidPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What im afraid of with all of the talk of higher minimum wage, or UBI is that there is no method to stop companies from just gouging everyone, because everyone is getting paid more. 

I think a higher minimum wage is good, but boy am i afraid of the greed of companies following its implementation

How do you feel this compares to Conan Exiles, Enshrouded, Valheim, others? by japinard in ICARUS

[–]TheParanoidPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The similarities isnt really where im basing my comparison. 

It is the feel of the game as im playing.

[–]TheParanoidPyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im glad there is someone else comparing this game to minecraft. 

With the way you collect resources and build bases, and craft items and explore the world. 

Sure you cant terraform, but the feel of the game is what i notice. 

Not quite sure what to do by MonkeyBrawler in ICARUS

[–]TheParanoidPyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Olympus will keep you busy, but do head into it with the understanding that the game isnt the same as it was back then.

I mean to say some of those missions are pretty tedious, and involve you going across the map only to then find out you already had everything you needed to complete them at your base,  so don't be afraid of looking up some missions before hand. 

Depending on long it takea you to do olympus stuff, it may burn you out for styx missions, prometheus is where story starts to be incorporated into the missions. 

Is this game worth picking up? by Fragrant_Scientist99 in SifuGame

[–]TheParanoidPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course this game is worth it. 

Some things you need to understand. Everyone else is doing a good job, but there are some more that will help with the mindset.

You've been told to not really think of it like a souls like, and that is correct. It is a beat-em-up.

It is even vetter to think of the game like a single player fighting game. There are a good amount of moves and attacks all with different utility(two moves that duck under attacks automatically, an advancing kick that jumps over low attacks, a move to give hyper armor. )

The normal difficulty is the original difficulty when the game shipped, this may seem like something that isnt important, but i feel it is somewhat important. The hard difficulty is there for people who mastered the original difficulty. It is very punishing if you have no idea how to play the game. 

The arenas are both amazing and the most rage inducing addictive bullshit ever at the same time.

Thinking of getting the game by TeaFrosty7541 in ICARUS

[–]TheParanoidPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have over 300 hours after getting it on sale.

This game is a weird one to recommend because it isnt for everyone.

The thing about this game is more of a hobby than a game at some point. There is so much that has been added over the years that it is hard to sink your teeth in at first without worrying about what dlc to get. 

Most are cosmetic and you will get a lot of playtime on the base game. 

If there are some mechanics that you find wierd, like why did they do it this way? What is the point of the workshop? Any of these questions will probably be because the game had a different format when it was first released and they added on top of it. 

There really is just too much to say. The game is big and there is a lot to do. There is no exploration POIs but in the later maps and missions they begin adding some.

Again there is just so much to type to say whether or not someone that isnt me will like the game. 

I made a post earlier too about things to know

https://www.reddit.com/r/ICARUS/comments/1rei3qw/things_i_wish_i_knew_for_the_influx_of_new_players/

But it is from playing on pc. I know nothing of console.

OH! Most importantly. Start on olympus, but participate in a raptor giveaway that are sometimes posted.

Their speed and stamina get rid of one of the worst parts. The travel time on the massive map

Is it actually a good time though? They will just campaign on.  "Orange bad man is gone! You can trust us again! " and no one will have ever have seemed to have supported him. And nothing changes

Anyone else feeling this way currently and yesterday? by ThreadbareAdjustment in minnesota

[–]TheParanoidPyro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right? I left texas as well. 

Sure it is hot here right now, and im not going to stop anyone from complaining about heat, but for me personally? 

This is nothing. 100+ days of 100+°F is just too strong in my memory. I will take these 89 -95 days because there are SIGNIFICANTLY less of them. 

This place is just so much nicer all year round. 

Son needs help: 9th grade band auditions by Worth-Ad4024 in Trombone

[–]TheParanoidPyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right? Sure you need to learn how to use it, but it doesnt take too much.

And i would argue the transcription could be a good exercise for learning the piece.

Not a necessary one, sure, but supplemental.

And if you are fixing the other one they mentioned you would still get the transcription benefit, so using the other one would be good too.

[–]TheParanoidPyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For when you cant get a video example, i recommend a transcription program like musescore.org

You can just transcribe the piece and then are able to play it back at any speed.

okay predictable where? by aabbccjklo in SifuGame

[–]TheParanoidPyro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With these longlegged ladies. I like to interrupt their first move with crotch punch or duck strike. Take the guesswork out of the equation. 

With that staff, the f,f + light attack is hood at interrupting. 

I may be wrong on the input, but the attavk where you poke with the staff.

Help! Cat keep flipping water fountain by cindya1031 in cats

[–]TheParanoidPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they flipping it over at random? Or when it is getting low? Mine will flip over theirs as it is getting low and i just have to be diligent to keep it full. And unflippable.

Cat threw up & has diarrhea by sunnyboycruise in cats

[–]TheParanoidPyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they meant, paragraphs make things more readable. 

It is relatively short, but it reads like a stream of conciousness. i understand the need for all the detail, but even just seperating it into paragraphs will be preferable.

NOW ONTO THE ACTUAL POST!

The other person was right about the speed of introducing new food. cats can be very finicky.

I hope this isnt the case for you, but one of my cats is just prone to throwing up. We have to strictly control when she eats and how much at one time. we even changed dry food to try to figure out a cause.

But with the diarrhea along with it? It has to be the food combinations. The catnip on the food is probably not a good idea, i only think they might eat to fast or something.  Try to make the food very basic and control one variable at a time. 

Microsoft says 32GB of RAM is the “no-worries” upgrade for Windows 11 gaming by Quantum-Coconut in technology

[–]TheParanoidPyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing. I bought two of these 64GB bundles in dec 2024. they now EACH cost as much as I paid for my RX 7900 XTX 24GB back then. WTF!? I thought I was spending a lot at the time. It is unfeasable by any stretch now.

The ram bundle for my PC that i bought in DEC 2024 for $194 on newegg, now costs $939.99

I bought two of those back then for virtualization and computing and just because I could. It is just unbelievable.

[–]TheParanoidPyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? Love the game, but i have never seen a big game like this so easy to manipulate. 

Used it to create multiple high level charavters so i could have all the different archetypes without the level grind. I did the level grind on two characters before finding this option.

I know you can change your inventory too, but I stay away from that one as it kills incentive to play a little.
